3 Heart of Darkness Joseph Conrad edited by D.C.R.A. Goonetilleke "In the light of Chinua Achebe's characterization of Conrad as 'a bloody racist' and Heart of Darkness as a work which 'depersonalizes a portion of the human race,'... Goonetilleke provides a rich, contextual background, embracing literature, biography, history, and geopolitics, that will help readers evaluate this controversial novella. Highly recommended." Eugene Benson, Co-editor, Encyclopedia of Post-Colonial Literatures in English pp paper CDN Concert of Voices An Anthology of World Writing in English edited by Victor J. Ramraj "a rich range of authors, representing a wide range of issues; this is an important and worthwhile project." Shalini Puri, University of Pittsburgh Concert of Voices provides an alternative text, combining poetry with fiction and essays in a wide-ranging anthology. Included are a number of established writers, who despite their great reputations, rarely find their way onto English Department reading lists (such as Wole Soyinka and Derek Walcott). Most selections, however, are by a wide range of much less established authors. The editor has provided a general introduction, a brief biographical note on each author, and brief explanatory notes where necessary pp paper CDN $26.95 U.S. $21.95 broadview press P.O.
